Whipping up delicious cream cupcakes is simple with this easy recipe. Perfect for parties or a sweet treat, these cupcakes are soft, moist, and topped with luscious cream frosting. Here’s how to make them:

### Ingredients

For the cupcakes:

- 1½ cups all-purpose flour

- 1 cup granulated sugar

- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

- 2 eggs

- ½ cup milk

- 2 tsp baking powder

- ½ tsp vanilla extract

For the cream frosting:

- 1 cup heavy cream, chilled

- ¼ cup powdered sugar

- 1 tsp vanilla extract

### Instructions

1. Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.

2. Make the Batter: In a bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with milk, until just combined.

3. Bake: Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.

4. Prepare the Cream Frosting: In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla; continue whipping until stiff.

5. Frost and Decorate: Spread or pipe the cream frosting over each cooled cupcake. Add sprinkles, fresh berries, or chocolate shavings for extra flair.
